“Eyes of Blue”

We surely knew in younger days
Our eyes of blue would never change
The paths we walked, the dreams we held
The hearts we touched, the love we felt

The hand we shook, the trust we gave
The moments lived, the memories saved
The days we laughed, the nights we cried
The truths we told, the hidden lies


We knew as well as the stars at night
Our aim was true, the time was right
Our words were gold, the map was new
We’d never change our eyes of blue


We fought the hearts of jaded hue
Who’d walked this road with eyes of blue
And told the tale of fading dreams
Of setting sun and raging streams

Who said it’s all a compromise
The color changes in your eyes
But bold as youth with voices clear
Our hearts of gold would be our mirror


We knew as well as the stars at night
Our aim was true, the time was right
Our words were gold, the map was new
We’d never change our eyes of blue


Our minds were young, our vision strong
We’d found the ground where we belonged
We’d ride that train into the sun
We’d play that song ‘til it was done


And though the road was full of holes
When days were hot and nights were cold
We set the course to save our souls
Our eyes were blue, our hearts were gold


We knew as well as the stars at night
Our aim was true, the time was right
Our words were gold, the map was new
We’d never change our eyes of blue

We knew as well as the stars above
Our song was real, the word was love
Our dreams were true, the map was old
With
Eyes of blue and hearts of gold
